To keep the holidays as stress-free as possible, I try to get most or all of my shopping for gifts done by about the second week of December. That way I can get everything all wrapped and ready to give in time for Christmas without a rush. I hate wrapping so this way I can really take my time with wrapping the gifts.

We are almost out of diapers so pls DO NOT enter us!But I must say--What a lovely FFS!
Well,some good ideas for stress-free holidays have already been given by other mamas.I`d like to add that I launch a massive de-clutter mission just before the holidays and get the whole family to help me clean the house(Cleaning is so much fun with all the clutter gone!).A clean.clutter-free environment means stress-free to me!Hope that helps!

To minimize holiday stress, my family uses does soup and finger foods for dinner, and we exchange names for gift giving. That way, each person isn't buying a gift for each person in the family. It really helps a lot.
